Manually start a data source run in Amazon DataZone

When you run a data source, Amazon DataZone pulls all any new or modified metadata from the source and updates the associated assets in the inventory. When you add a data source to Amazon DataZone, you specify the source's run preference, which defines whether the source runs on a schedule or on demand. If your source runs on demand, you must initiate a data source run manually.

Even if your source runs on a schedule, you can still run it manually at any time. After adding business metadata to the assets, you can select assets and publish them to the Amazon DataZone catalog in order for these assets to be discoverable by all domain users. Only published assets are searchable by other domain users.

To run a data source manually

  1. Navigate to the Amazon DataZone data portal URL and sign in using single sign-on (SSO) or your AWS credentials. If you’re an Amazon DataZone administrator, you can navigate to the Amazon DataZone console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/datazone and sign in with the AWS account where the domain was created, then choose Open data portal.

  2. Choose Select project from the top navigation pane and select the project to which the data source belongs.

  3. Navigate to the Data tab for the project.

  4. Choose Data sources from the left navigation pane, then locate and choose the data source that you want to run. This opens the data source details page.

  5. Choose Run on demand.

    The data source status changes to Running as Amazon DataZone updates the asset metadata with the most recent data from the source. You can monitor the status of the run on the Data source runs tab.
